Physical therapist Dr. Sarah Kaderka joins The Health Lab in Carson City, focusing on pelvic floor treatment

The Health Lab is proud to welcome Dr. Sarah Kaderka to its team of dedicated healthcare professionals. Dr. Kaderka brings a wealth of knowledge, passion, and a deep commitment to improving the quality of life for her patients.

A Specialized Approach to Pelvic Floor Health

Pelvic floor dysfunction is a condition that affects millions of people, yet it often goes undiagnosed or untreated due to a lack of awareness and specialized care. Dr. Kaderka’s expertise lies in treating a wide range of pelvic floor issues, including urinary incontinence, pelvic pain, and prolapse. Her approach combines physical therapy, patient education, and personalized treatment plans to help patients regain control and confidence.

Dr. Kaderka is passionate about providing holistic care that addresses the unique needs of each patient. "The pelvic floor is an essential part of our body's basic function, and its dysfunction can impact daily life in profound ways," she explains. "I’m here to help patients understand their condition and work with them to develop effective, non-invasive treatments that promote healing and restoration."

Who Can Benefit from Pelvic Floor Therapy?

Pelvic floor therapy is beneficial for a wide range of patients, from postpartum women experiencing pelvic pain or incontinence to older adults dealing with issues related to aging. Athletes who engage in high-impact sports may also find pelvic floor therapy beneficial, as it can help prevent injuries and improve core stability.

Dr. Kaderka's patients often include:

Postpartum Women: Pregnancy and childbirth can put significant strain on the pelvic floor muscles, leading to issues like incontinence or prolapse. Dr. Kaderka works with new mothers to help them regain strength and function in their pelvic floor.

Older Adults: Aging can weaken the pelvic floor, leading to problems like urinary incontinence or pelvic organ prolapse. Dr. Kaderka’s treatments are tailored to help seniors maintain their independence and quality of life.

Athletes: High-impact sports can place extra stress on the pelvic floor. Dr. Kaderka offers preventive care and rehabilitation for athletes looking to strengthen their core and avoid injury.

A Commitment to Comprehensive Care

At The Health Lab, Dr. Kaderka is part of a multidisciplinary team that includes specialists in physical therapy, and family medicine primary care. This collaborative environment allows her to provide comprehensive care that addresses not just the symptoms of pelvic floor dysfunction but also its underlying causes.

"We’re thrilled to have Dr. Kaderka join our team," says The Health Lab’s Owner, Loren Wooldridge. "Her expertise in pelvic floor therapy fills a vital need in our community, and we’re confident that her compassionate, patient-centered approach will make a significant impact on the lives of those she treats."
